Minature Golf, Skee Ball and a 3-d show:
After all that playing, we did need to get some work done! We went to the grocery store, and got some ice-cream to help us shop:
And this is why the kids ALWAYS want to go to the store with Toph:
So many fun little games, face painting and a park! As you can see the kiddos had a good time– how I love carnival games.
The next day, Elliot had a friend over, and they spent quite a bit of time doing this with their balloons:
We’re always sad to see Strawberry Days End! 🙂
They became our favorite way to cool off this summer! Lots of sugar, but lots of ice too. 🙂
They added chocolate chips to their brownies and they turned out deliciously. Love that my boys wanted to do a cooking class this summer.
Library Class, arts and crafts!
We rollerbladed/double strollered/biked it.
And here I am, after pushing the stroller on my rolllerblades in 100 degree weather, my face was red, as red could be! 🙂 Lesson Learned don’t rollerblade in the middle of the hot day!
Stawberry Days, is a busy time for our family! In the evenings our youth do a fundraiser where they clean the Rodeo Grounds. Either Toph or I were there every night, and the last two nights, the big boys came along to help. It was good times together!
But even more fun, was the Carnival.
Lorelei’s Favorite ride was the Carousel.
Elliot loved to climbing Obstacle Course.
Truman and Tucker loved the ‘big kids rides’, as you can see Toph went on the Zipper with them, that looked like a giant Egg Beater. I got sick just watching them!
They loved all of them!
Toph’s Favorite Part was definitely the Strawberries and cream. This year, we bought a flat of strawberries and a gallon of Cream. Let’s just say, he ate a few. But somehow I failed to capture any of them! 🙂
Happy Strawberry days!
We got to meet the parrots, and check out books. A few words that I never thought I would say together in a sentence!
Elliot called it a ‘great Birdy morning’.
Truth.
How we love to swim!
And loved the hours we spent at the pool this summer! 🙂
is being able to play, play, play, play!
And having no place we need to be!
One morning, the kiddos spent the day in a Marshmallow gun war.
Here they all are:
The big boys were pretty serious in the event, and we even sewed little pouches to hold the marshmallows that clipped to their pants. Their were marshmallows all over our yard, and when it got hot they started to melt. Ha. Ha.
The littles enjoyed stuffing their guns, and eating the fluffy sugary goodness.
